3) I was really worried with the rape SANE scene there that they were going to depict this as some kind of regretted sex incident. On the one hand, it was fascinating to see how they process victims of SA, OTOH some of the compassion came across as a little condescending. And then when she refused the genital swab... Also, we're seven hours in to the episode, which makes it about 2 p.m. I'm trying to understand how she got sexually assaulted at a 4th of a July BBQ by a drunk friend in the middle of the day?

4) Cyberattack? Really? Come on, now.

5) To that end, what was with the goofy CEO summoning al-Hashimi but not Robby? Robby looked Big Mad.

6) Where the hell was Whitacker/Huckleberry last night? And what's with this "he spends all his time at this widow's farm" storyline? Are we to believe he's balls deep in the widow and raising a dead man's child?

At least not motorcycles sans helmet talk in this episode. They were starting to lay the foreshadowing on thick earlier.

I still love this show but I agree that the reality of the timing of the incidents is weird, case in point the depo on July Fourth or the kid studying in the college library in July?

I also feel like the scenes jump around much more this season so we are getting less of each player - like Whittacker last night and McKay has hardly been in this season at all.

Agreed that the timing is distracting from the realism. They should have made it July 5.

And the shut down of the computers with no notice also seems wildly unrealistic.

I still like the show, but it does not compare to the first season.

+1 plus we barely have Langdon now.

Maybe at home, but not in the library at 7am.

Maybe he pulled an allnighter. He wasn't at the library at 0700. He was in the hospital.

My kid doesn’t study at home. He’s always in library, lab, some other building on campus to study. And yes at 7am in summer.

The deposition on 7/4 got me, doesn't seem likely. The assault victim's clothes weren't ripped and she had no scrapes or bruises, it was obvious she was going to change her mind. Why is it that the other hospital was completely shut down due to the hack, but the Pitt is expected to function without computers?

Why is no one picking up the baby? She's seriously crying.

That is really bothering me too. That damn "lullaby" is not going to stop a cold distressed baby from wailing.

She had bruises. Dana took pictures of them.

It is strange that they chose to do the show on July 4th. Won't the shift be over by the time it's dark and there will be tons of firecracker/firework injuries?

Please tell me you don’t assume someone wasn’t SAed because their clothes aren’t ripped and they have no bruises (but she did on her back).

Some campuses have 24/7 libraries (my school had one).

And studying at 7am may be on purpose to show something is off with his mental state.

Exactly re: law student. His paranoia and hearing voices is all related to "them" not wanting him to pass the bar. If you go back and listen to what he was shouting, it was legal stuff. So, yes, unusual for someone to study on a holiday morning, but not for *this person*.

I agree with some of the timing problems (like the deposition on the 4th, and the late-morning sexual assault).

That said, Dana's compassion and gentle touch was making me cry.

Yes Katherina LaNasa was exceptional in those scenes.

I wish Santos would have less screen time and Mel and Whitaker more (I can deal with characters that are not as conventionally nice but those two particularly Mel are more interesting.) Also like woman dr. with son.

As an aside - I’m going to have nightmares about someone saying balls deep after previous poster. Ha.

Season 1 was a lot better so far but completely agree this show is actually better if you watch a few in a row or whole season at once.
